I'm a database guy so everything looks like a database problem to me, but I'm not sure how this would fit in (as I'm completely unfamiliar with the data used here). Can anyone more knowledgeable than me suggest whether a data

Why don't YOU take some old code and rewrite it. I tried it for some 30+ year old HPC code and it was a grim experience and I failed hard. So why not keep your lazy, fatuous suggestions to yourself.

I'm pretty sure you don't have a clue or any significant experience, and too much arrogance to stop and question your own assumptions which you've just imposed on others including me, but carry on anyway.

"Designed for teaching, research, and industrial applications" - from wikipedia (2nd sentence) Seems to have done pretty damn well IMO. Not that I've used it for 25 years, but I liked it and it introduced me to FP which total

I reported a probably Windows perf bug. Nothing happened. I reported it again. Basically they weren't interested despite my careful spelling it out. Time wasted. Fuck them. Maybe it wasn't a bug (hah!) but they could have come bac

Agreed that Microsoft is adding features for the sake of setting C# apart rather than making it a better language (IMO). I strongly disagree about the treatment of null values, if there's one thing I like about C# it's that (even

I must admit to disliking C#'s functional libraries. I have wasted so much time trying to get the buggers into a pipeline. It becomes agonising in a way that doing the same thing in Scala was so very much a dream. I keep discovering th

It's fine & I've used that. Given a name (say Jones) then the possessive is with a "'s" suffix (Jones's) but for by convention you can elide the final "s" to avoid duplication (so: Jones').

Disable JS & it works lovely. Not the first time I've found blocking JS has unborked a borked web page either. @james_impliu: I like simple text websites. Why do web devs love making simple things complex?
